LESSER-KNOWN ART FORM
Azulejos, the art of painting on ceramics
and tiles, is native to Goa and dates
back to the days of the Portuguese Raj.

INSIDER TIP
Every evening, Arambol Beach in North
Goa is witness to active jam sessions by
travellers and local music-lovers.

Mario Miranda was a
popular cartoonist from Goa
whose work features on the
walls of several cafes.

For Tanaaz de Souza, art runs
in the blood. Everyone in her
family is associated with some
form of art—a culture not
uncommon in Goa. An
abstract artist, Tanaaz has
travelled across Europe and


Southeast Asia and she draws
inspiration from her travels.
When not checking out the
latest art exhibitions in town,
she hosts travellers from
across the world at her
cottage, Sands of Baga.
